Christian Character Day



Thursday, it was a half day at the girls' school. They had something called Christian Character Day. They would dress as their favorite Christian character, from the Bible or modern times, and parents and students would have to guess who they were. Emma was dressed as Ruth in the picture you see.
The other picture is of David Ruiz playing goalie in the playground area of the school. I thought it was a cool action shot. Thursday afternoon we were to get together with some other missionaries from the US and Canada to celebrate Thanksgiving. We though it would be a good compromise to celebrate the two thanksgivings halfway between the Canadian Thanksgiving at the begining of October and the US Thanksgiving at the end of November. Unfortunately, the daughter of our American friends turned quite ill and ended up in the hospital so just the Ruizs and ourselves celebrated together. Friday was report card day from the school, the day parents are surprised about exam marks they were not told about since the previous report card. All the girls are doing well, we are glad to report.
